    Question Ryzen Master looks blurry, opaque. How can I fix this?

    Since I have upgraded from nVidia to an AMD 6800XT, my Ryzen Master has its transparency effect ruined and text blurry, as if my GPU is treating it like a game to apply antialiasing, etc. How can I fix this? Reinstalling did not help. View: https://imgur.com/0861mtu

    1080Ti: Is 70 C okay for long-term use?

    I have a 1080Ti SC 2 from EVGA and the software sucks horribly, so I want to run it with the default hardware/bios fan curve which puts my temps around 70C while gaming. Is this okay for long-term use, or would I be better off trying to squeeze maybe 5C less with another software? I'm trying to...

    Does manual undervolting disable XFR on Ryzen 1800X?

    I'll be installing a Ryzen 7 1800X in a system that now has a Ryzen 5 which I have currently undervolted. I want to keep temps in check more than push the CPU to a max OC, so I plan to undervolt. AS I understand it, overclocking disables XFR on X series Ryzen chisp, but does the same apply to...

    Does it matter which VGA power I use (1 or 2)?

    I am upgrading from a single 8-Pin to a dual 8-Pin graphics card, so I need to add another 8 Pin connector to my EVGA Supernova 650 G3 80+ Gold 650W fully modular power supply. Does it matter which VGA power from my power supply I use to either of the two connectors on the video card? (i.e...
